Brad Schimel once wrote that politicians using their office and powers to benefit their campaign contributors was, “the essence of representative government”.

It is clear his priorities lie with his wealthy donors- not working Wisconsinites.

Nearly every Republican in the Senate voted to overturn a Biden Admin rule that limited bank overdraft fees to $5.

This rule, initially established by the now gutted CFPB, was expected to save consumers $5 billion annually.

The GOP is the party of junk fees.

A postcard with white text on a black background reading: TRUMP wants to KILL the US POSTAL SERVICE Say NO to USPS PRIVATIZATION In the center is the USPS eagle, black/white inverted

The reverse side of a 4" x 6" postcard with the text: The US Postal Service: Is not motivated by profit. Is mandated to provide service to every zip code including affordable service for rural areas. Is used for mail-in ballots. Is in the Constitution. (Read: ArtI.S8.C7.1 for historical background on postal power. Promotes Diversity and Inclusion: Employees are 21% African-American; 8% Hispanic; 8% Asian-American/Pacific Islander; .67% American Indian or Alaska Native. You can: Use USPS for shipping. Buy stamps and use them. Order from businesses that ship with USPS. Stop ordering from Amazon. Call your Representatives. Find your reps by using www.5calls.org. Tell postal workers you love them. Tell postal workers you have their backs.

I just designed these post cards and ordered 2500 of them to hand out, mail out (so carriers and postal workers can see them!) and distribute in other ways. I'll make them available for the cost of printing and postage, but if you'd like the design files so you can get them printed yourself, DM me!

Laws like the SCREEN Act that police trans and Queer lives as pornography while also ramping up the criminalization of pornography and sex work are a test.

If you fail that test, people like me disappear and die.

Restore U.S. Forestry Positions to Mitigate Wildfire Risks Text SIGN PITOEX to 50409 — Today I take pen in hand to write and urge you to do whatever you can to block the termination of thousands of U.S. Forest Service employees. This action, started by the Trump administration, and ignored by Republicans jeopardizes our ability to prevent and combat wildfires effectively. Secretary Brooke Rollins supports Trump’s directive to fire about 2,000 “probationary, non-firefighting employees,” which he said was for efficiency’s sake, and runs contrary to what anyone says about the need for ‘better forest management’. The layoffs have reduced the workforce responsible for crucial tasks like maintaining trails, removing combustible debris, and supporting firefighting efforts. Funds have also been frozen for wildfire prevention programs. This administration, from the top to the Republican controlled Congress, is putting lives, property and infrastructure at risk in a climate unstable, warming world, a side effect of our use of fossil fuels. With fewer resources dedicated to wildfire mitigation, communities across the American West face an increased risk of destructive blazes, especially in areas where towns border forest lands. We urge you to block these layoff, unfreeze the funds, and indeed work to provide additional resources crucial for wildfire prevention. Thank you.

The blackout doesn’t have to end today. Commit to spending your dollars locally so they stay out of the hands of mega corporations and billionaires. Follow our boycott guide and continue to support micro economies in your local town or city.

Hegseth Warned of Military Action if Mexico Fails to Meet Trump’s Border Demands — The Wall Street Journal The defense secretary’s told Mexican security officials the U.S. was ready to take unilateral action against drug cartels

In any other era, the Secretary of Defense threatening to invade an ally and one of our largest trade partners would be front page news for days.

It’s not even the stupidest, most reckless thing this administration has done this afternoon.

Flu Vax Saves Lives Text SIGN PXAVMJ to 50409 — The FDA abruptly canceled its upcoming advisory committee meeting to select the strains for next year's flu shot. There's a 6 month production cycle so now is the time that strains need to be selected. Flu is dangerous; the virus mutates regularly. Herd immunity from a high vaccination rate protects us all. Younger adults with strong immune systems got decimated in the 1918 influenza pandemic. Their strong immune responses resulted in pneumonia. Influenza doesn't mess around. The Senate approved RFK Jr against the advice of thousands of medical professionals. Please arrange for RFK Jr to be subpoenaed by the appropriate committees to answer questions under oath. Please pass a bill in Congress to select and order flu vaccine. Consider impeaching RFK Jr for dereliction.
